How to create and send an invoice in Flowody

Invoices are created inside the job, so the customer, site and job number stay connected. Flowody saves invoice changes automatically and calculates GST and totals as you enter each line.

  1. Open job invoicing

    Open the job and select Invoicing under Financials in the left sidebar. The page shows existing invoices or the message No invoice selected when the job has not been invoiced.

  2. Create the invoice

    Select + New Invoice. Flowody copies the job's customer, site and job number, sets the invoice and due dates, and assigns an invoice number when the draft begins saving.
